Unusual handmade enamel earrings in a pale peach shade with black scribble design.Discs were cut from copper sheet and enamelled in a layer of black opaque enamel. A handmixed pale peach liquid enamel was then painted on top of the black and the organic scribble design scratched through the dried liquid layer. This technique is called 'sgrafitto' and literally means to scratch. The enamel is then fired revealing the two colours. The firing process has also created some crackling in the liquid layer of enamel which adds to the organic look of the earrings

The backs of the earrings are also enamelled in a smoky black shade. The earrings are finished with handmade oxidized sterling silver earwires.
